Annual Audi car insurance premiums typically range from £750 for basic third-party policies up to £2,000 for comprehensive cover. Expect higher rates for performance models, such as RS vehicles, and lower premiums for A1 or A3 models.
Specific variables that increase Audi insurance rates include:
In calculating premiums, insurers mainly examine:
Recent accidents, traffic violations and disqualifications raise rates substantially. A clean record lowers costs.
Policies for daily-driver Audis cost more than those covering occasional recreational use. Mileage also impacts premiums.
Insurers offer discounts for approved alarms, immobilisers, tracking devices and secure garaging. These deter theft.
Lower coverage levels reduce premiums but leave drivers exposed if a major claim occurs. Finding the right balance is key.
Here are some top ways to get cheaper Audi insurance in the UK:
